More than likely, the main reason why you’re endeavoring on a weight training routine is to either look better, feel better, or both. However, did you know that hitting the iron can also help you THINK better? Yes, indeed. Take a look at what Muscle & Fitness recently posted:

“In a recent Japanese study published in The Journal of Physiology, researchers found that regularly carbing up after exercise raises the brain’s baseline glycogen levels by up to 60% in areas responsible for thinking and memory.
